Which site?

[NWI_Scanner_Guy]

I may have asked this question before, and if I have, I apologize, but I couldn't find it in a search.

I'm trying to program STARCOM-21 into a WS1040 using ARC500, and when I go to select the site I want to use, Cook South, I notice that there are two 'options' for Cook South; one with 85x.xxxx frequencies and one with 75x.xxxx frequencies. Which one would would be best to monitor the system from Hammond IN and also from Lansing IL?

This scanner will mostly be used at my work (in Lansing), but may also see some use at home (Hammond).

Thanks in advance for any information provided.

Site 1-002 is your best bet. The other site (1-030-Christ Hospital) is currently used primarily for Oak Lawn Central's Starcom system, which is linked to Site 1-002.

Don't even bother putting in Sites 5-01/02. Everything on them is ENC...

Thanks for the help in choosing the correct site. I got STARCOM programmed in and the scanner is picking it up like a champ from both locations!!

Excellent to hear, happy it works, I bet you could hear the Will & DuPage sites if you you wanted to. DUCOMM only hits the DuPage sites if interested. Have fun & Scan On!
